ken cuccinelli was a flawed candidate going in. here you are in a swing state. >> they forced a primary, they forced a convention, attention recognizes, if you want to get candidates that don't have broad support please force a convention and lose. >> terry mcauliffe's campaign on friday did a post mortem but making a few points. they said terry mcauliffe had a luxury that ken cuccinelli didn't, which is if you move to the center and you're a democratic nominee your base doesn't punish you. your base doesn't get angry. you move to the center as a republican nominee and the base gets angry. and we can actually see it in new jersey with chris christie. there's not a large tea party base in new jersey so not many people are angry at him. look at his national numbers. over the last six months his numbers overall with the middle have been fine, gotten better. no republican does better nationally than chris christie with independents. but with tea party republicans it's gotten worse. here it is. this is the great riddle of chris christie
